Dolphitech A/S (Gjøvik, Norway) presents its next-generation digital inspection product, Matrix Through Transmission Ultrasonic (MxTTU), which is said to combine advanced non-destructive testing (NDT) technology with all the benefits of current thru-transmission ultrasound (TTU) offerings for in-depth, high-quality in-service inspection diagnostics. Robust, flexible and user friendly, dolphicam2 MxTTU is an ideal fit for industrial customers, and, Dolphitech says, is the only portable device (weighing only ~7 pounds) that can offer the conclusiveness of live C-scans and simplified TTU evaluation. The technology was developed with the support of Spirit AeroSystems (Wichita, Kan., U.S.).
Compared to standard Pulse Echo (PE) systems, MxTTU provides a larger inspection area, enabling improved alignment for high-precision tasks without sacrificing resolution or rate of evaluation. The NDT device also inspects materials that hinder sound propagation with high attenuation properties, such as multiple bond layers, honeycomb cores or foam cores. Nevertheless, Dolphitech claims one of the most valuable aspects of the dolphicam2 MxTTU system is its ability to toggle between MxTTU and Pulse Echo mode without having to use another system or changing transducers.
